The shop

Run by the Anderson family

Ned Anderson has been working on cars since he was a kid, and that passion turned into a shop that has served Knoxville for more than thirty years. It is still family owned and operated today, on Cooper Street in North Knoxville.

The mix of honest repair and dependable towing is why so many drivers keep Anderson’s number saved in their phone.
